It’s really sad that this book isn’t pulled by more people each month. I don’t know how many people out there in the ifanbase are fans of Star Wars but you should not allow any preconceived notions on this book, or any of the other comic on the expanded universe of Star Wars for that matter, deter you from it in any way. For any people who don’t know this book is set about 4000 years before the events of episode 4 in the era of the old republic when jedi were plentiful. The title of the book comes from the award winning game series but in actual fact draws very little from the game and there is no need to have played it at all to read this comic. The book doesn’t contain any relatives of the Skywalkers or the Solos but instead draws from the people and events of the time such as the Mandalorian Wars and the early beginings of sith lords such as Malak.

This is the end of the second arc since Zayne had his name cleared on the murders of the Padawans and i have to admit this is a true return to form since the last horrible arc (which I have to say was just about the only uninteresting 3 issues of 41 issue strong series).The art by Brian Ching is absolutley stunning and the colouring gives the book a real vibrance complimenting Ching’s art perfectly. John Jackson Miller gives us a big reveal about one of the key characters in the book, introducing a new character from their dark past. It seems that we will be diving into that characters past and ,from what we know so far, it should be very interesting.Whats even better is that from the letter column we know that Malak will be making a return in the next issue which signals the beginning of the next overarching storyline. Im really glad the book will be going down the road of another big story since, in my opinion, it has lacked direction sine Zayne was cleared of murder.

Overall, I really urge people out there in the ifanbase to maybe make the small sacrafice and buy the first trade which sets up the premise for the first huge story arc, believe me its good.

Story: 5 - Excellent
Art: 5 - Excellent
